Here are all the places you can find the original Oculus Rift right now

The new Oculus Rift S is on its way. We got a look at all the new specifications just a couple days ago, and since then we've also managed to take it for a spin. It's a big upgrade over the previous edition, the Oculus Rift CV1, but it's also going to cost around $399 when it first comes out. The original Oculus Rift has seen several price drops and deals over the years, and you're bound to find it at least $50 cheaper at the major retailers. If you're eager to get into virtual reality, but aren't quite ready to invest big in the newest system, we'll be keeping a look out for the best places to buy the original.

After the Rift S releases, we might even see some retailers eager to get rid of the previous editions. That will mean bigger deals, clearance sales, and more. We'll update this post if we find anything like that. Right now, here are the best places to buy the Oculus Rift CV1:

Micro Center has the Rift for $349.99, but the availability is in-store only, and it will depend on whether or not your local store has any in stock. There are only 25 Micro Center locations in the U.S., so be sure to check the list to see if any are nearby.

Third Parties

Outside of the above possibilities, you can try third party websites. For that, eBay is going to be your best bet. There are plenty of pre-owned and used systems, but the few selling it new are charging over $500 for the moment. You can also keep an eye on the official eBay stores of Best Buy and Newegg in case it pops up there.

The old Oculus Rift is still one of the best virtual reality systems around. If we find anywhere new or any potential ways to save, we'll update this page. Save it and check back later.
